Wed, 16 May 2018 15:12:52 +0000http://www.facesoflearning.net/?page_id=1183#comment-18195My name is Carolyn McDaniel. I decided to enter college later in life because my oldest son kept at me about going to school. I kept telling him and I hated school, but I did not want to discourage my younger sons, so I entered the world of college and I am glad I did. I preceded to get my Bachelor’s degree, graduated Magna Cum Laude and now is pursuing my Master’s degree in special education. I chose special education because I have worked with children with specials needs for a long time. I even had a daughter who was special needs but died of an unknown birth defect and her twin brother who has disabilities. Although I do not want to teach in the classroom, I would like to an advocate for parents with children with disabilities. I am now 60 years old but I feel a person never gets to old to learn.

Thus, I flourish with the use of a whiteboard, visual aids, and graphic organizers. I learned that I don’t retain much information with just oral instruction.

It would be a great lesson for them to self evaluate themselves on how they retain information and how they use their study skills.

I just wanted to find a field where I could make a difference by teaching people how to focus on the positive and to focus on their strengths.

I noticed this week that my students learned so much more when I gave them the freedom to explore and work at their own pace than when I pair them up or lead direct instruction. I know it is not feasible to do this all of the time but making the students responsible for their own learning forces them to actually learn!
